Chapter 21: Dream Eating (I)
On this day, there was still no business at the Chenwu Gym. Jiang Wu practiced swords in the backyard, while Jiang Chen went into the bedroom to watch "Ten Thousand Demon Spectrum", leaving only Xiaobai to guard the yard.
Suddenly, Jiang Chen heard Xiaobai scream twice, and his spirits suddenly perked.
"Guests?" Jiang Chen immediately put down the "Ten Thousand Demon Spectrum", locked it in the dark box, and then hurriedly ran to the outer hall, but saw an extremely beautiful, fairy-like girl, who was holding Xiaobai in her arms hard, rubbing Xiaobai with her face, and seemed to like it very much. Xiaobai was squeezed on the girl's chest, close to the girl, but he still showed a very reluctant look, and whined a few times.
Jiang Chen, who saw this scene, was enthusiastic, he roared, and said angrily: "Let go of Xiaobai, there is a kind of rushing at me!"
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then let go of Xiaobai, she glanced at Jiang Chen, and said, "It's so stingy!
As soon as Jiang Chen heard this voice, he immediately recognized the girl: "It turned out to be the third miss! Why doesn't the third miss wear a veil?"
The girl said, "Walking around the market wearing a veil is so eye-catching, so I don't wear it!"
"Are you more eye-catching like this!" Jiang Chen couldn't help but say. A beautiful woman like Miss Yaowangzhuang will definitely be in the spotlight when she goes out, and these three young ladies are indeed as rumored, their appearance is more outstanding than her sister, and they appear in this town, I am afraid that there will be thousands of empty alleys.
Jiang Chen hurriedly looked out of the courtyard, but fortunately, no one followed the third lady.
The girl took out something as soft as a handkerchief, put it on her face, and said to Jiang Chen, "Look!"
Jiang Chen was startled, after the girl put on this thing, she turned into a woman with a sallow complexion and ordinary facial features.
"What a clever mask!" Jiang Chen praised. Although if you look closely, your expression is a little sluggish and stiff after wearing the mask, but no one will look closely at such an ordinary appearance.
"This is specially left to me by the eldest sister. The girl said, "With this mask, it will be much easier to move." Also, you don't want Miss Three to call me like this, in case someone else hears it, it's not good. ”
"Then what do we call you?" Jiang Chen asked, he glanced at the girl's mask, compared to before, he couldn't bear to look at it directly, and he said, "There are no outsiders here, so you don't have to wear a mask." ”
"The four gentlemen of Meilan Zhuju, I am the third among the four sisters in my family, so call me Junzhu. The girl took off her mask and smiled.
Seeing this unbelievable face, Jiang Chen only felt that his head was empty, and said without thinking: "The county lord is good." ”
The girl sneered, and Jiang Chen reacted: "It's Miss Junzhu." ”
"It's okay to call the county lord!" the girl smiled, "I don't mind." ”
"Did Junzhu come to see us on purpose?" Jiang Chen asked.
"No!" the girl's cheeks were slightly red: "I'm here to find Aunt Li, and by the way, tell her that I rented a storefront on the street in front of me and planned to practice medicine." ”
"Azhu found the store so quickly?" The landlady happened to come back from grocery shopping and heard the conversation between the two.
The girl immediately went to take the landlord's arm and asked, "Aunt Li, have I taken the medicine I gave you?"
"Eat it, this medicine is really spiritual!" Aunt Li was very happy: "In the past, when it was cloudy and rainy, I was sore all over, and I couldn't sleep all night. I used your rheumatism, it was not sore or painful, and I slept all night! Today, when I saw people, they talked about it, and the neighbors said that they should also buy some rheumatism powder from you. I bought some vegetables and stayed for lunch at noon......"
Aunt Li and Miss San walked into the kitchen together, and they were quite intimate with each other, like a mother and daughter. Jiang Chen sighed secretly in his heart, he and Aunt Li have known each other for two or three years, and every time Aunt Li sees him, she either urges him to pay the rent or criticizes him for not doing his job properly, and not learning his craft well to be a Taoist! These three young ladies and Aunt Li have only known each other for a few days, and Aunt Li treats her like her own daughter!
"By the way, who is that," Aunt Li suddenly said to Jiang Chen: "I steamed two baskets of steamed buns, and you send one cage to Shopkeeper Hu." ”
"Good, good. Jiang Chen smiled and agreed. The attitude of the landlady towards him is almost the same as when she treats the third lady.
Jiang Chen confessed to Jiang Wu, and then carried a basket full of buns to the market, and by the way, he also took Xiaobai for a walk.
When Jiang Chen came to the grocery store of Shopkeeper Hu, there were two or three customers. Jiang Chen put down the basket and was about to leave with an explanation, but suddenly saw a familiar face.
"Brother Li!" Jiang Chen shouted, and a young scholar in his early twenties turned around when he heard this, and asked Jiang Chen suspiciously, "Are you calling me?"
"I'm Jiang Chen! My brother is Jiang Wu!" Jiang Chen was stunned: "Why doesn't Brother Li recognize me? We have been book friends for many years!"
The scholar was even more puzzled, he looked Jiang Chen up and down, and asked, "Jiang Chen, I don't seem to have you as a book friend, do you admit your mistake?"
Jiang Chen hurriedly said: "Your name is Li Qingsong, right? You are a talent on the list in May last year, and everyone calls you Li Xiucai." ”
The scholar nodded: "I'm Li Qingsong, it seems that you do know me." But how can I not remember you? Are we book friends from many years ago, haven't seen each other for a long time?"
"It didn't take long, even after you got married, I haven't seen you for more than half a year. Jiang Chen said: "After you became a clerical master in Fenghe County, you also came to Yunlan Town to invite me to a banquet several times. ”
The scholar was surprised, and he said: "I do work as a clerk in Fenghe County, but why don't I remember you at all? Moreover, I am not married!"
Jiang Chen was completely stunned at this moment, he opened his mouth wide, and was speechless for a long time.
This Li Qingsong has been his friend for many years, even if the other party can't remember him, how can he even forget such a major event as his marriage? Moreover, with the same appearance, the same name, and even the same position experience, it is impossible for him to recognize the wrong person!
"What's weird?" Jiang Chen's heart moved, he picked up Xiao Bai and sent him to Li Qingsong's side, letting Xiao Bai smell the breath around him.
"You really didn't recognize the wrong person?" Li Qingsong himself was also very confused, and a teenager appeared inexplicably, not only saying his name and position, but also saying that he had been a friend for many years, and even said that he had become a relative, but he couldn't remember who this young man was, but subconsciously seemed to feel that this young man was a little familiar, and this feeling was as if he had seen each other in a dream.
Li Qingsong reached out to touch Xiaobai, but Xiaobai barked at him twice, so frightened that he subconsciously retracted his hand.
"There is a demonic aura!" Jiang Chen's heart moved, Xiaobai would not bark casually, it should smell the breath of other demons on Li Qingsong's body.
Jiang Chen secretly said in his heart: "Brother Li and our brothers have known each other for many years, of course he can't be a demon. It seems that he has recently encountered some kind of demon, and he has been tainted with some demonic energy. He doesn't remember me, he doesn't even remember that he's married, is it related to the demons he came into contact with?"
